I just recently watched "Apocalypse Now Redux" for the first time. Amazing movie. Loved hearing the "I love the smell of Napalm" in the morning. It was bantered around from all my movie buff friends for the longest of times. Now, I get the context with the scene on the beach.
The last movie I have watched is Avengers Endgame. Overall a decent movie, but I did find many things annoying about it. My main gripe is how during the final battle while everyone is fighting to save the future, people are all over the place yet somehow every single female superhero comes to save the poor spiderman at the exact same time (girl power and all that). It is so contrived to project "strong women" that it took away from what would have been a perfectly good moment if just left to Captain Marvel to help spiderman and then people (male and female) cleared the way as needed.

Thank you!
